My Hermes

Put anything here that's badly designed/made, failed, catastrophically exploded or just an epic fail in a general sort of way.

My Hermes

Postby Slyspark » Tue Aug 08, 2017 9:35 pm

Fucking joke this lot - had them delivering me some 2-D lamps today (not me who picked the carrier) and get home to find a box of broken glass behind the gate. Watched the CCTV back and it shows the guy just dumping the box over it. I'll be telling them on this occasion, despite them not insuring glass, they will be covering it or I'll be uploading the video on facebook. Cunts.

I've sent and received a lot of parcels with MyHermes & never really had a problem. I do package everything I send very well, the couple of broken items I've received have been due to poor packaging.

They are the worst couriers for rough handling though, especially at the actual collection and delivery points. They pay people pittance to collect and deliver things in their own vehicles, and I'm certainly not tarring everyone who does this with the same brush, but the 'pay peanuts' phrase springs to mind.

Try upload it here if you can i wanna see . When he delivered my lamps i was stuck on the bog and watched him from out the bathroom window throw it over the fence hit the corner of the concrete before it bounced off and landed on the lawn! I suppose i should leave the wheely bins there really so theres less of a fall
